The Bourne Trilogy changed the way action films sound, and raised the bar for everything that came after them. Supervising Sound Editor Per Hallberg takes us back through his work on all three films (Identity, Supremacy & Ultimatum). We dig into the sound design for the mesmerizing fight scenes, the intense car chases and even the tension built into the CIA’s war rooms. Special Thanks to Formosa Hollywood for hosting this talk. (This interview was originally scheduled to include Per’s co-supervisor on these films, Karen Baker Landers. Sadly she was ill that day and could not attend)
